OK group, here’s what I’ve got planned for this spring.
1) Stuffing box, I’m going to redo the stuffing box. I’d like to set it up to drip as little as possible. What should I buy and what size?
2) Musty odor, the boat has developed some musty odors coming from under the sink and other closed spaces. I was thinking of using a a chlorine spray mixture and spray where I have access and then rinse it down to the bilge.
3) Bilge pump, my bilge pump is leaking water when it runs (Jabsco model 37202-0000). I have a spare pump from the fresh water system. Any reason why I couldn’t use this pump to replace the bilge pump?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
